< Atũmwo 3 >
1 Mũthenya ũmwe Petero na Johana nĩmambatire magĩthiĩ hekarũ-inĩ ihinda rĩa mahooya, na kwarĩ thaa kenda cia mũthenya.
NOW at that time Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth;
2 Na rĩrĩ, mũndũ waciarĩtwo arĩ mwonju nĩakuuagwo agatwarwo kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa hekarũ kĩrĩa gĩetagwo Gĩthaka, akaigwo ho o mũthenya nĩguo ahooe mbeeca kũrĩ andũ arĩa maatoonyaga hekarũ.
when a certain man who was lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple called Beautiful, to ask alms of those who were entering into the temple;
3 Na rĩrĩa onire Petero na Johana marĩ hakuhĩ gũtoonya-rĩ, akĩmahooya mbeeca.
who seeing Peter and John just going into the temple, asked to receive alms.
4 Nao Petero na Johana makĩmũkũũrĩra maitho. Hĩndĩ ĩyo Petero akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ta tũrore!”
Then Peter fixing his eves stedfastly on him with John, said, Look on us.
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũndũ ũcio akĩmarora, erĩgĩrĩire atĩ nĩmekũmũhe kĩndũ.
So he attentively regarded them, expecting to receive something from them.
6 Petero agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Betha na thahabu ndirĩ nacio, no kĩrĩa ndĩ nakĩo nĩkĩo ngũkũhe. Thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Jesũ Kristũ wa Nazarethi, ũkĩra wĩtware.”
Then said Peter, I have neither silver nor gold; but what I have, that I give thee: By the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarean, arise, and walk!
7 Akĩmũnyiita guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo, akĩmũrũgamia na igũrũ, na o hĩndĩ ĩyo magũrũ na thũngʼwa cia mũndũ ũcio ikĩgĩa na hinya.
And taking him by the right hand, he raised him up: and immediately his feet and ancles were restored to strength.
8 Nake akĩrũga na igũrũ, akĩambĩrĩria gwĩtwara. Agĩcooka agĩthiĩ nao hekarũ-inĩ, etwarĩte na magũrũ, akĩrũgarũgaga na akĩgoocaga Ngai.
And springing up he stood on his feet, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.
9 Rĩrĩa andũ othe monire agĩĩtwara na magũrũ akĩgoocaga Ngai,
And all the people beheld him walking and praising God:
10 makĩmenya atĩ nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa watũũraga aikarĩte kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa hekarũ kĩrĩa gĩetagwo Gĩthaka akĩhooya mbeeca. Nao makĩgega mamakĩte nĩkuona ũrĩa kwahanĩkĩte harĩ mũndũ ũcio.
and they took notice of him, that it was the same person who had sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with astonishment and amazed at what had happened to him.
11 Mũndũ ũcio watũũrĩte ahooyaga mbeeca-rĩ, o enyiitĩrĩire Petero na Johana, andũ othe makĩgega na magĩũka matengʼerete nginya hau maarĩ, naho heetagwo Gĩthaku gĩa Solomoni.
But as the lame man that was cured held fast Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them into the portico called Solomon’s, in vast amazement.
12 Rĩrĩa Petero onire ũguo, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Andũ aya a Isiraeli, ũndũ ũyũ ũramũgegia nĩkĩ? Mũratũrora atĩa taarĩ hinya witũ kana ũthingu witũ watũma mũndũ ũyũ etware na magũrũ?
Then Peter observing it, addressed himself to the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why gaze ye upon us, as if by our own power or piety we had enabled this man to walk?
13 Ngai wa Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka na Jakubu, o we Ngai wa maithe maitũ, nĩagoocithĩtie ndungata yake Jesũ. Inyuĩ nĩmwamũneanire ooragwo, na mũkĩmũkaana mbere ya Pilato, o na gũtuĩka nĩatuĩte itua rĩa kũmũrekereria.
The God of Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he had determined to release him.
14 Mwakaanire Ũrĩa Mũtheru na Mũthingu mũkiuga muohorerwo mũũragani.
But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and besought that a man, a murderer, might as a favour be given unto you;
15 Mworagire ũrĩa mũheani wa muoyo, no Ngai nĩamũriũkirie kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ. Ithuĩ tũrĩ aira a ũhoro ũcio.
but ye slew the Author of life, whom God raised from the dead: of which we are witnesses.
16 Nĩ ũndũ wa wĩtĩkio thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Jesũ, mũndũ ũyũ mũrona na mũũĩ, nĩagĩĩte na hinya. Nĩ rĩĩtwa rĩa Jesũ na wĩtĩkio ũrĩa uumanaga nake watũma mũndũ ũyũ ahone o ta ũrĩa inyuothe mũreyonera.
And through faith in his name hath his name restored this man to strength, whom ye behold and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the sight of you all.
17 “Na rĩrĩ, ariũ a Ithe witũ, nĩnjũũĩ atĩ mwekire ũguo nĩ ũndũ wa kũrigwo, o ta ũrĩa atongoria anyu o nao meekire.
And now, brethren, I know that through ignorance ye did this deed, as did also your rulers.
18 No rĩrĩ, ũguo nĩguo Ngai aahingirie ũrĩa aarĩtie o mbere na tũnua twa anabii othe, akiuga atĩ Kristũ wake nĩakanyariirĩka.
But the things which God before announced by the mouth of all his prophets, that Messiah should suffer, he hath thus fulfilled.
19 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mwĩrirei na mũgarũrũke kũrĩ Ngai, nĩgeetha mehia manyu meherio, nĩguo mũgĩe na mahinda ma kũrurumũkio moimĩte kũrĩ Mwathani, na
Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when refreshing seasons shall come from the presence of the Lord;
20 nĩguo atũme Kristũ, o we ũrĩa wamũrĩtwo nĩ ũndũ wanyu, nake nĩwe Jesũ.
and he will send Jesus Christ, who was before preached unto you:
21 We no nginya aikare igũrũ o nginya ihinda rĩkinye rĩa Ngai rĩa gũcookereria maũndũ mothe, o ta ũrĩa eranĩire o tene na tũnua twa anabii aake atheru. (aiōn )
whom the heaven indeed must receive, until the times of restoration of all things, which God hath spoken of by the mouth of all his holy prophets from the beginning of the world. (aiōn )
22 Nĩgũkorwo Musa oigire atĩrĩ, ‘Mwathani Ngai wanyu nĩakamwarahũrĩra mũnabii o ta niĩ kuuma kũrĩ andũ anyu. Na no nginya mũgaathikĩrĩria ũrĩa wothe akaamwĩra.
For Moses truly said unto the fathers, “A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you from among your brethren, like myself; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall speak to you.
23 Na rĩrĩ, mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ũtakamũthikĩrĩria, nĩakeherio biũ kuuma kũrĩ andũ ao.’
But it shall come to pass, that every soul which will not hearken to that prophet, shall be utterly exterminated from amidst the people.”
24 “Ti-itherũ, anabii othe kuuma hĩndĩ ya Samũeli, arĩa manaaria, nĩ maaririe ũhoro wa matukũ maya.
And all the prophets indeed from Samuel, and those who succeeded him, as many as have spoken, have also foretold those days.
25 Na inyuĩ mũrĩ ariũ a anabii, na a kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa Ngai aarĩkanĩire na maithe manyu. Eerire Iburahĩmu atĩrĩ, ‘Na nĩ ũndũ wa rũciaro rwaku, andũ othe a thĩ nĩmakarathimwo.’
Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And “in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed.”
26 Rĩrĩa Ngai aariũkirie ndungata yake, aambire kũmĩtũma kũrĩ inyuĩ nĩgeetha amũrathime na ũndũ wa kũgarũra o ũmwe wanyu kuuma kũrĩ mĩtũũrĩre yanyu ya waganu.”
Unto you in the first instance, hath God, after raising up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, to the end that every one of you should turn away from your iniquities.
